MacHeist have released this year’s bundle:

“Last year’s bundle caused a frenzy in the Mac community, selling over 16,000 copies in a week. This year, we’re setting our sights a little higher, with a larger bundle, a two week sale, and what we believe to be a stronger collection of apps. Simply put, this is the best Mac software deal in history.”

I see some neat stuff here, even as a newly minted part-time Mac user I can recognise a few sweet deals in the mix that make it a tempting offer. Then there are the claims that a percentage will go to charity — always a crowd pleaser.

However, interest is tainted by previous antics in which much tom-foolery, claim, counter-claim and questions of ethics occurred, leading one to wonder just how much of a ‘deal’ this really is.

Pink

You may note a little pinkish hue to the ‘foo on your next visit.

I’ve joined the fray for the Pink for October campaign.

“Web sites will Go Pink during the month of October to bring attention to Breast Cancer Awareness Month, get people talking about breast cancer, and raise money for research.” #

Having lost a grandparent to Cancer, it seemed all the more relevant to add my (small) voice to the cause.

Advertising for the month of October1 will be passed over to the Australian Nation Breast Cancer Foundation — if you would like to help, I have a few sponsorship spots ((the text-link-ads are currently sold out)) remaining that will also be donated.

Thank you for taking the time to read this short message — if you decide to donate a little as a result, or simply causes you to pause and think for a moment, then it’s been more than worth the effort.

  1. less hosting fees, which aren’t too excessive ()
